Chapter 170: Sensory Deprivation Trap (1)
Chapter 170: Sensory Deprivation Trap (1)
Tens of minutes before Do Min-jeong, also known as Floss, was dragged to the Villain Association.
Shin Tae-geon had located the hotel room where Kang Young-hoon and Do Min-jeong were staying. It was all thanks to a video someone had uploaded to the Female Hero Gallery Back Alley.
He had only logged on to use Floss as masturbation material, since it had been quite a while since he’d seen her. He couldn't quite understand it himself, but lately, the memory and sensation of thrusting into Floss’s pussy provided a much better experience than actually finding a real woman to sleep with.
That was when he discovered the video titled [Magical Girl Floss Cosplayer Delivery Exposure Legend].
The title claimed it was a cosplayer, but as the man who had seen Floss through her "virginity graduation," Shin Tae-geon could tell at a glance that it wasn't a cosplayer, but the real Floss.
He didn't hesitate. Information regarding Seoul’s luxury hotels was already stored in his head. He could tell exactly where it was just from the brief glimpses of the hallway design in the video.
He immediately drove to the hotel. By utilizing his connections with the staff, it wasn't difficult to find out exactly which room Do Min-jeong had checked into.
Even so, the hotel employee was hesitant to hand over a master card, but when Shin Tae-geon mentioned he would schedule his next meeting with foreign buyers at the hotel’s buffet, the staff member relented and handed it over.
‘Why am I even doing this?’
He had heard rumors that Floss was currently hunting a villain executive. However, he never imagined that Floss—of all people—would actually be defeated by a villain.
‘Unless it’s defeat play, that is.’
So what was he so worried about that he was rushing like this? What could he even do once he got there? Shin Tae-geon might be the CEO of a pharmaceutical company and the son of a conglomerate chairman who could help Do Min-jeong in other ways, but in the context of a superpower battle, an invisible man was of no use to a magical girl.
Shin Tae-geon couldn't understand himself. The number of things he couldn't understand regarding Floss was steadily increasing.
"Holy shit."
Shin Tae-geon arrived at the hotel room where Kang Young-hoon and Floss had checked in at a very dramatic moment—right after Kang Young-hoon had pulled out a Pocket and sucked Floss into the subspace of the Villain Association.
Shin Tae-geon opened the door while invisible, and Kang Young-hoon froze in shock at the sudden opening of the door. In that split second, all sorts of thoughts raced through both men's minds.
‘What was that? Did he just suck Floss inside? What the hell is that thing, Sun Wukong’s gourd?’
‘...Who opened the door?’
However, as men who were both experts in their respective fields, they reached conclusions quickly. Shin Tae-geon moved swiftly to subdue him before Kang Young-hoon could notice his presence, while Kang Young-hoon narrowed down a list of heroes and villains with invisibility powers.
Shin Tae-geon’s surprise attack and Kang Young-hoon’s realization of an invisible man’s presence happened almost simultaneously.
"Urgh...!"
Of course, in a normal situation, it would have been Kang Young-hoon’s overwhelming victory. Setting aside the fact that both were alpha males who maintained muscular physiques through constant exercise, no matter how much Shin Tae-geon struggled, Kang Young-hoon was a time-stop ability user.
Unless Shin Tae-geon managed to knock him out with a single surprise blow, it should have been over the moment Kang Young-hoon "clicked" and stopped time.
"...Huh?"
But a variable occurred. Kang Young-hoon could no longer use his time-stop ability.
"Why? Why isn't it working? Why won't it activate?!"
Today was the first time Kang Young-hoon had used his time-stop ability so frequently and for such long durations in a single day.
Like the villain he was, Kang Young-hoon didn't go around causing large-scale incidents; he usually only used his power to make some quick cash or to fuck women. Consequently, he didn't know the upper limit of how much he could use his ability in a day.
But today, hadn't he used it several times at the reunion, and then several more times in a row right after Floss appeared, claiming he would train her?
‘I wondered why I felt so tired...!’
He thought his vision was blurry because Floss had milked him so much during their semen extraction sex, but there was a different reason entirely.
It was a total disaster. Unable to hide his predicament, Kang Young-hoon was struck by Shin Tae-geon. Since he was already exhausted to the point of death, he lost consciousness almost instantly.
"Phew."
After knocking Kang Young-hoon down, Shin Tae-geon first picked up the mysterious Pocket.
‘What should I do with this?’
Shin Tae-geon didn't yet know that this Pocket was the gateway to the Villain Association. This Pocket was a precious item given only to villains within the association who had high contribution scores and were verified as trustworthy.
Shin Tae-geon had also been a villain once and had been asked to join the Villain Association. However, he was never an official member and had never done anything for the association's growth or prosperity.
Naturally, there was no way for him to know the specific functions of this Pocket. Even if he had known, given his personality, he wouldn't have jumped straight in to find Floss.
‘The first priority... is to take this Pocket to the Hero Association.’
It wasn't just the Pocket. He planned to take the fallen Kang Young-hoon as well. He would consult with the Association Chairman and other heroes, think carefully, and then decide on his next move.
At the moment Shin Tae-geon made that decision, Floss...
"...What? Weren't you coming with me?"
...was left standing all alone in the Villain Association, without Kang Young-hoon, who had spoken as if he were right behind her.

"What is wrong with that guy?"
I sat down and tilted my head in confusion. I couldn't understand Kang Young-hoon, no matter how hard I tried.
If he was going to forcibly send me here while shouting, "This is the Villain Association!", shouldn't he have come along to put a leash on my neck or something?
Maybe drag me around and introduce me to other villains to make me feel humiliated. That wouldn't have been so bad.
Even after sitting still where I had dropped for a long time, Kang Young-hoon didn't show up. At this point, I felt I had fulfilled my end of the bargain, so I decided it was time to head out and find the others.
‘Since I don't know how to get out yet anyway, should I look for the Operator first?’
Just coming here was a gain. I had gained information I never knew before—that the entry route to the Villain Association was that mysterious Pocket.
I felt embarrassed thinking back to when the Association Chairman and I would put our heads together and spout ridiculous conspiracy theories about secret bases under the Antarctic Ocean or inside the Earth's mantle.
‘Right, now that I think about it, they turned a Gate into a field training ground, so this must be something similar.’
Generally, a Gate closes once the Boss Monster is defeated. If it isn't caught within the time limit, the monsters inside spill out into the world.
Taking advantage of that, the Hero Academy had run a project to turn a specific Gate into a training ground. I knew this very well because I had helped with the process.
By keeping the Boss Monster, a Slime, alive but buried underground, the Gate didn't close. Instead, weak monsters continued to spawn, making it a great practice ground for aspiring heroes to experience real combat.
‘This place might have a similar structure.’
Based on my common sense, this was the best way to understand it.
Of course, there was a big difference between the Academy's training Gate and this place. The Academy's training ground had facilities built around a randomly generated Gate to manage entry and exit. On the other hand, this "Villain Association Gate" (tentative name) didn't require finding a specific entrance to get in.
‘Since that Pocket seemed to act as a portable portal.’
If nothing else, the one who made that must be the Magic Tool Maker. Between the wireless sync onahole and everything else, it felt like that guy was responsible for every annoying thing that happened.
"Now then... which way should I go?"
Unlike the inside of a typical Gate, the Villain Association's subspace was quite modernized. It seemed a lot had been invested here, considering many villains lived here and it had been their base for a long time.
Turning my head to the left, I saw a black castle standing tall in the middle of a scorched forest. The surrounding area was laid out like a normal city, but the black castle had a uniquely alien atmosphere.
‘It looks like something straight out of a Demon King's Castle in a fantasy novel.’
Feeling a bit uneasy, I turned my head to the right. This time, instead of a forest turned to ash, I saw a peaceful-looking field. To be honest, as someone who frequently enters Gates, this was a more familiar sight.
However, if someone asked which side the Operator was likely imprisoned on, anyone would answer the left. For starters, the right side didn't have a single building that could hide a person.
Exactly ten minutes after I set off, I ended up falling into a mysterious pit.
"Ngh, what is this...?"
I hadn't fallen in because I was stupidly spacing out. At a glance, there was nothing wrong, but as soon as I took a step, the ground suddenly gave way and my body plummeted.
Usually, you watch your surroundings, not your feet. It was my mistake. How was I supposed to know there would be a sinkhole in a place like this?
"But something is... suspicious..."
However, I soon realized that this wasn't just a simple pit or sinkhole. This hole was a trap clearly installed with intent.
The ground hadn't just collapsed. It was just that before I fell, it was something that could be seen but not touched. In a way, it could be called an optical illusion.
But the moment I fell into the hole, the situation changed.
The fake floor that had existed only as an illusion suddenly materialized and hardened, acting as a barrier that separated my lower half, which had already fallen below the floor, from my upper half, which remained above.
My lower half was trapped beneath the floor, while my upper half stuck out in a ridiculous display. It was a relief that no one was around to see the pathetic sight of a magical girl caught in a trap.
"...What is this? It feels like something is grabbing me and won't let go."
Actually, I could just break the floor and pull my lower half out. I could kick it with my knee or smash it with my fist.
But it wasn't just the hard floor keeping me from escaping the trap.
"Hi-Hieeeek...?!"
Something long, flaunting a slimy and wet texture, clung to my leg. I had felt a similar sensation before.
‘Slime tentacles...!’
Multiple tentacles coiled around my legs as if binding them. It only took a moment for things to start feeling strange. It seemed these tentacles were secreting an aphrodisiac just like a slime in heat, as my sensitivity slowly began to rise.
The fear that I would lose myself if I stayed like this. Simultaneously, the desire to experience being caught like this at least once.
As I wavered between the two, an androgynous voice echoed from deep within the hole.
[Casting 'Sensory Deprivation' magic on target.]
At the same time, a squelch sounded as a tentacle cock thrust into and penetrated my pussy.
The moment that hideous thing was shoved inside, I couldn't help but feel a sense of confusion.
"Oogh...♡"
The sensory deprivation... didn't work at all...!
